    Your baseband is probably at 5.14.xx which isn't unlockable at this time.

    You'll need to update the bb to 6.15.00 with redsn0w. Be aware that doing this will disable GPS and currently there is no fix for it. Google maps will still work, but an actual GPS app won't.

    Edit: check the bb (aka modem firmware version). If it is 5.14.xx, check your bootloader. Use f0recast to check. If it is 5.8, you can downgrade the bb to unlock rather than upgrading it. This is better to retain GPS function. If you don't have 5.8, then upgrading the bb is the only option. Once you upgrade the bb you can't downgrade it.

    There have been many reports of problems with GPS and WiFi concerning BB 6.15.

    Yes, the GPS will be disabled as mentioned above.

    Wifi is fixable simply by restoring and rejb, the GPS cannot be fixed at this time.
